someone that cheered me up
Tuesday, October 27, 2009 |11:53 PM

the past 2 weeks have been tiring making calls and often times, calls not being answered. To add to this, it has also been my company's mid year forecast and 2nd quarter close. With mid year forecast, people just keep asking you questions and questions that are ask repeatedly by the senior manager then the vp also ask. In fact, these few weeks they really ask until i 发脾气。 Can still remember 2 incidents:

1) My am called and its like the 5th time the am called me that very day. So by that time i was really very irritated. When i pick up the phone, i was like “做什么?又有什么事?”For those who know me when i used that tone, it simply means i am already at the tip of my tolerance level. When the am heard me, he quickly said "nothing and put down the phone."

2) My senior manager came over and stood next to me with his laptop one early morning and i saw him with the corner of my eye. Then i turn to look @ him and ask "early in the morning, what are you doing here? " Then he was like "stand here can only ask you about your entities." Anyway my reply to him was terrible. It was like "again??"

So recently, mood swings, temper not very good and get emo quite often. Well, i also have been twittering quite abit after learning how to use it and actually someone notice i wasn't feeling too good and actually asked me about it. Just by that gesture of asking really touched the heart. The message was simple it just goes like this:

"You alright? Quite a few unhappy tweets recently."

Yes, i was very touched by the person encouragement/asking whatever you name it. In addition, i bought something to make myself happy as well and as usual a picture speaks a thousand words, so here it goes..what i bought-->

Isn't she cute? finally got a chance to go to the kitty fair @ taka which will be ending on 28 Oct and got this. Will be bringing her to my office though to hug her while i work. :)





sometimes, you just need friends like that
Thursday, October 22, 2009 |11:51 PM

as often as i say, many people always have the wrong impression of me. many people would think i am someone who have lots of close friends because i am loud and outgoing. but the truth is no! if you consider friends, yes i do have a handful. But if you are referring to close friends, its countable. I must admit that i do segregate people in my "dictionary" as friends, colleagues and acquaintance. but over here, i shan't elaborate too much on these 3 categories i have. For this entry, i really would like to thank this particular friend of mine..this was what happened.

Just last monday, i was feeling real tired. The whole day, i was searching for chartered bus coaches and have been calling malaysia the whole day till i was real tired and abit sian. I felt like a tape recorder in fact because the question i've been asking the whole day is this :

" Does your company have chartered bus services? If yes, i would like to charter a bus for 40 people on 31 Oct to JB. How much is it?"

After many calls, i ended up very disappointed because all the quotations i got are beyond budget. So when i left work that very day, i really felt very sianz. Then while i was walking out my phone rang. I didn't even look at the caller id and just picked up the phone. Initially i couldn't make out who it was at the other end but i just continued to talk. Then after a while, i finally realise who she is..its--> my dear melody, evelyn!!

Evelyn could sense i was abit sian (maybe because of my voice) and she asked me how i am and i told her about what happened the whole day. Then..she told me there is this brother in church who does bus coaches and so at once she helped me contact me..lovely! Seriously i think she is God sent. She called just at the right timing and God really sent the right person to call me. As i was talking to her, i was like "Thank God" that she called me at the time whereby i felt the most tired and just wanted someone to talk to. :)




been thinking
Tuesday, October 20, 2009 |1:51 PM

it's the time of the year whereby after the chinese 7th month..wedding invites start to pile up. Till date, i've already got like 4 weddings line up in the month of Dec'09. Will be real broke. By fortunately, i'll be having my AWS so it really helps to compensate a little for the future cash outflow.

oh well..as i receive all the wedding invites, my heart start to ponder..when will it be my turn to give out wedding invites? To ponder upon this question is kind of scary, because i am not even attached yet! To make things worst, my brother will be getting married next May. So..it means i'll be the only child left @ home. :( *sobsob* hmzz..though i feel sad. i've been thinking about this -> i want to get married, but the question is-> why do i want to get married? As i mention before, many people in this world get married for various reasons. Some poeple get married because they are pregnant, some because they want to get out of their house, some because of companionship and the list just goes on and on.

So for me, what's the reason i want to get married? In the past, i will tell people. Well its because most people around me are married, most of my closest friends are married. So i wanna get married. But the question is..so what if all are married? And i really gave thoughts to it till i met an old friend recently @ the bus stop while on the way to work. After talking to her, i found the reason which is:

I want to get married because most of my closest friends are married and many times i feel that because they are married and while i am single, i don't know how to relate to them. When they tell you about their issues of being married, being a single i can't understand and i can't a better way to relate to them when i can't understand their issues. Another thing is my pool of single friends are getting lesser and i see most of my common friends who have their other half are able to go out and do "couple activities" together. More often, i feel sian when i go because i can't do "couple activities", so i end up not going. So it ends up that i drift further and further away with them.

So i am hoping and praying that God will faster give me someone who can complement, appreciate me for who i am and walk this life journey with me.




abit of everything
Thursday, October 15, 2009 |11:17 PM

been some time since i blog something serious. well but that doesn't mean the rest of my entries are not worthy to be taken seriously. oct is a busy month for me and i mean real busy. besides recovering from my holidays in sep. oct is known as a busy work month for me for the following reasons:

1) Half year reporting + half year close. We have to do mid year forecast and reporting to the management, our holding company, complete consolidation packages etc...

2) Quarterly reporting + quarterly close. Its our 2nd quarter close. So its time to report to my unit holders as well.

3) Not as if, the above 2 aren't enough to kill us..my company just upgraded our reporting system. So Oct is the first month that our closing is done in the "upgraded" version of the system. Making matters complicated.

Well that's my work month for Oct. To top it all, besides a busy month @ work. Its also the beginning of the outreach season. Preparing for the christmas harvest. So @ church, we are busy preparing for outreach, having events. But amidst all these busyness & tiredness, i find life more fulfilling. Well, i enjoy my work. Though there are times i grumble, complain. But i really enjoy what i do.

At church, its fulfilling because:

a) New dynamics was formed

b) i can see for myself the hearts of the people who are concerned about outreach. about the lives of people who are not saved.

c) got to know new people in the unit.

Ok. Besides work and church. there hasn't been any really BIG things happening in my life besides a change in some "dynamics" in my life recently which got me a little thinking. The next time is..i'm hooked onto shopping. Oh well.. your dear princess ain't an avid shopper in fact. But recently, i'm hooked on buying shoes. Many times, i just wanna buy clothes, but i end up buying shoes instead cause no clothes catch my eye but shoes do..Bought a pair from gripz last week and a pair from Pazzion this week. In fact, its my first time buying from Pazzion and their shoes are really comfortable! Its made of Lambskin leather. So..showcasing my new pair of shoes-->
this is just a shoe box..my first pair of Pazzion shoes :)


was trying to make out what's all the red wordings on the shoe and finally make it out it reads "fabulously you" which is the slogan for Pazzion. yes it fabulously yours dear princess!





change in dynamics.
Monday, October 12, 2009 |10:39 PM
